MODERATORS
The age ban is a poorly thought out policy by a tech illiterate bunch of fossils that does nothing but erode everyones privacy. Which is why there are also attempts being made to use phones to authenticate users so they can be more thoroughly tracked wherever they go as the secure chips cannot be modified. It is also why privacy operating systems like linux and graphene OS are being targeted by google and co because they remove the ability for google to have super user status on your phone and thus not be able to be shut off when you don't want it running. GrapheneOS allows you to control what access google has to your phone and they don't likey.
@busted_Anoose @Gorgritch_umie_killa I'm curious what you think about anonage.io as a way to combat the tracking... Those fossils can't beat zero knowledge hand shakes 🤣
